We specifically ordered our Vista with the dinette/buffet option. It has a tabletop that is permanently extended enough for 2 people but will pull out from under the counter top to seat 2 more. Even with both slides in, there's plenty of walking room. Two of the chairs fold and are stored under the bed.
There's a wall of cabinets along that wall, both under and over the dining area so we have plenty of storage that is easily accessible and configured such that things aren't piled on top of one another like they were when I had a booth set-up eons ago. Our flat screen TV is on that same wall between the counter top and the upper cabinets. This puts the TV across from the sofa which was important to us. We really don't like a TV in the front.
It's just the 2 of us, and even if we take one or two of our grandchildren with us one of these days when they get old enough, we still have the sofa sleeper.
As the other answers indicate, it's really a personal choice that only you two can answer. My best advice is to think about how you'll use your RV and what matters most to you. And above all, try out the arrangement - booth, tables and chairs, pull-out and chairs (like ours) - to see if it's comfortable.
I don't think we'd have bought an RV without a set-up similar to ours, but that's because it's what works for us. That's the key. It has to be what works for you.
Good hunting and hope you find a rig you fall in love with.
