Hey guys,
I had a very pleasant experience with this embassy. First of all they are quite responsive to emails – it takes usually a day to get a response, but every further question that I emailed them got responded within 5-10 min (I had to re-schedule the interview as my wife's medical was not ready – NVC scheduled the interview 12 days after they completed the case, and we could not get an appointment early enough).
The appointment was at 10 AM. We came in 20 min earlier – found no lines. We passed security and then met a nice lady who got medical results and assembled the documents for our kid and my wife. Then we were taken to a different room where we waited for ~20 min to see a consul. The consul was another nice lady who asked my wife to swear to tell the truth and asked a few questions like where do you meet, when did I propose, how, where did we have a marriage and whether we had a party in the US etc. She did not ask for my tax returns, driver license, pictures etc. Then she informed us that they will mail the visa next week. Overall, the interview took < 10 min... We were outside at around 11:20 AM or so.
For those bringing kids – there are lots of books and some toys in the waiting room – so no need to bring your toys with you. I think they put us ahead of line because of the kid, since we were taken to the consul before some folks who were already in the waiting room.
Overall, it is nice and quiet place. People were courteous and we enjoyed the whole process - very efficient and quick 
Good luck!
