Your presence together will score the most points. If the U.S. petitioner isn't allowed in the actual interview, the beneficiary should take the petitioner's U.S. passport and give it to the consular officer, first thing. This will put the interview on the strongest footing possible and could even result in the petitioner's being invited in.

Otherwise, go atop any VJ page, click "Embassy Info" and "Reviews: Embassy," and read stories about your embassy.
