I had a very good experience.
The first line was the security line. Inside the consulate my passport, photo, return address was collected at the first counter, at the second counter my originals and fingerprints were taken. The employee explained the process of today and what happens thereafter to me. Checking up with me the personal infos in the computer. the third counter was the actual interview. In my case it was brief. Just one or 2 questions and handing me back the originals. Kept for sure the passport.
All the stops at the counters were not long at all but had to wait some time for the second and third counter.
I spent about 2,5 hours at the consulate, from arriving at the consulate till I left the consulate.

Everybody at the embassy is super friendly. The interview went very smooth and there is no reason to worry if you are prepared. The questions were fair and about where and when we met, how often we have seen each other, if I have already met his family and when and where he proposed.
Good luck everybody!

The interview process was very professional.
Our appointment was at 8AM, so we travelled to Frankfurt the day prior and stayed at the Best Western Hotel Friedberger Warte that is nearby. I suggest you stay there if you have an early appointment as it is just a short 5 minute walk from the hotel front door to the consulate entrance.
When you arrive at the consulate, there are two lines queued up outside. The line to the left is for Non Immigrant Visas, and the line to the right is for other visas and US Citizen services. As I accompanied my fiancee and am a US Citizen, we went into the empty line to the right and were processed next, which skipped about 30 people standing in line.
After the confirm your appointment you process through security, which is pretty straightforward. You remove all metal items and place them into a clear plastic bag, proceed through a metal detector while your possessions go through an X-Ray machine, and then proc... read complete review

Was nervous on my way to the consulate, but as soon as I got there and noticed how nice everyone was, that feeling quickly passed.
Waited outside for three or four minutes (be sure to stand in the right line, not the left one for "non-immigrant visas"!), passed security, checked in and was told to go to a window at the very end of the hall to pay my visa fee.
The gentleman there was very friendly and made a few jokes, which also helped the mood of everyone there also awaiting their interviews.
After paying the fee and waiting for about five minutes, I was called to another window where an officer went through my submitted documents with me to check if everything is correct. I had a couple of questions, and he was so kind to ask a colleague for me.
Then waited for another short period of time, perhaps fifteen minutes, before my interview started. Like others have said on VisaJourney before, it felt more like a very direct conversation ... read complete review

As many have stated before, the interview in Frankfurt is easy and nothing to worry about.
I had my appointment at 08:15 and was back in my car at 09:05. Parking is hard to find, so plan in sufficient time to find a parking lot,
The lines were short, everyone was friendly. Security inside (where you go through the metal detectors) could be a little friendlier though - rude Germans, what can I say...
Wait times inside were short for me, it didn't seem like a very busy day (not knowing what a busy day looks like...). The interview was fairly short. Questions asked were along the lines of: how did you meet? describe the engagement? what are your travel plans? do either of you have kids? is it the first marriage for both of you? when was the last time you saw each other? All in all, nothing tricky. Got told I'm approved right there, handed back my originals and told my passport should be there within the next 10 days.
