We went to Slider Gold for the Early Autumn Omakase eight course dinner and it was excellent. The wagyu croquette, the sashimi with aged soy sauce, and the pork belly were the highlights of the meal. I've never enjoyed fatty meat, but the pork belly just melts in your mouth and Chef Emperor made the most delicious sauce and rice to go with it. My husband was not as impressed, but I think the price and location played into his assessment more. The Workshop is like an upscale food court, and we sat at Slider Gold's bar instead of the the large area of tables the area shares. So, people were coming up to order several feet from us and once while the chef was explaining a dish he just brought out, a guy came up to ask him if there was a bathroom. I didn't mind it, but I can understand not feeling like it was worth $139 plus drinks. Versions of the items on the menu are available to order by themselves, though, so I would love to at least get another croquette some time or check out the dim sum menu when it comes out.
