text: We had tickets to KA and decided to get reservations at Nobhill since I have eaten at other Mina restaurants like XVI and have had good experiences plus I was missing my regional bay area cuisine Our show was at and our reservations were at giving us plenty of time to relax or so I thoughtnnThe restaurant decor was very nice and the host told us right away that it was quite busy and that our table was not ready We waited about minutes and the hostess gave us glasses of complimentary champagne which was a nice gesture given the waitnnWe finally got seated and ordered a bottle of sumptous Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc and the rest of the wine list looked good We shared a small appetizer of truffle mac and cheese and one of my companions remarked that it was the best he is ever tasted nnWe ordered two chicken and dumplings and I ordered the seafood cioppino This was at about PM and there were a lot of large groups because of the tradeshow we were attending We had informed the waitress that we had KA tickets and that we had to be at the show on time at Then the waiting started At about PM the manager came by to let us know ours were coming out in a few minutes Then another minutes went by and finally our food arrived at giving us minutes to eat nnI scarfed down my ciopinno and the fish was done well rare in the center for tuna and well done for the salmon The scallop was a bit undercooked but the problem was the tomato broth that severely underseasoned and lacked in robustness This was especially needed since the seafood was not very seasoned so the dish tasted slightly bland My companions remarked the chicken was good but the dumplings were unevenly salted with some bites saltier than others nnGiven the significant wait time and nothing being done after serving our food no discount or apologies I can only give them stars If there was no service issue this would be a star
