Appointment was at 8 am , lifts do not open until 7.30 am. Toilets are on level 7 if you are really nervous like I was lol.
Get off at level 10, if the door to the embassy is closed, then take a seat and wait, they call out when its open.
Go through security, then at the next desk you can check in your bag, then they will have you line up. When called go to the counter where they sort out your paperwork. Once done, take a seat and wait for the security guard to call you up to get in the lift.
Once you get to the embassy floor you have to report to security again, they then buzz you into the room of doom (interview area). You have to show your passport at all security checks so keep it handy.
Once inside the processing/interview room, take a ticket from the machine for visas and sit down in the middle .
They call you up pretty quickly and sort through your paperwork, they ask questions about the paperwork if... read complete review

Having previously gone through a US visa process for a working visa there were no major surprises with security lines and wait times.
The girls after security shuffled my papers and took out a couple of extra pages then straight upstairs to a line for a quick intermediate interview. Once through that I sat down in the seating area until I was called to Window 1, which had screens around it (the other windows are quite open and you can hear all the other interviews happening from where you're are sitting, but they seemed to be exclusively for work/travel visas).
The woman interviewing me was really lovely. I think she asked about 3 questions, How did we meet, where do we plan on living, will I continue to work for the same company etc. Then she handed me a piece of paper regarding domestic abuse and smiled and said congratulations, you're approved. All up I spent more time in lines or waiting than being interviewed.

I was a bit nervous in the beginning even though I had all the necessary documents. The people at the embassy are the nicest and that does put you at ease. After the security check, the documents are arranged as per the checklist and you are sent up for the interview. Take a token slip and await your turn. Fingerprint check - questions - approval.
Questions I was asked:
1) How did you meet?
2) Any kids?
3) When did you last meet?
4) Where does your fiancee live?
5) Which countries have you lived in?
Thats it!

I arrived at the consulate at 10.50 for an 11.15am interview and the nice police officer let me go through as there was a line in security anyway.
Went through security, got upstairs and went to the first line where a lady had a look through my paperwork and told me that my name would be called and i would not need to take a number.
In less than 10mins my name was called, I went to the window and was asked to take the oath and my prints were taken.
Then gentlemen behind the counter then asked how i met my fiancé. I was very nervous so i rambled on about how we met and then he just looked through my documents and asked me what our marriage plans were.
He that said "we are going to issue your visa today and you will receive it in 1-2 weeks"
Done! I was out in 30 mins or less and could barely believe I was approved as it all happened so quickly!
Very happy and excited
