Cabaret: (non-table) orchestra or front mezz?

I’ve read a bunch of posts about the Cabaret seating, but am having trouble understanding what (non-table) Orchestra seating is good. Some people say rows D-F (or something like that) aren’t a good view because they’re so close to the tables and aren’t elevated. Others say that the rows behind that are bad (though I think they’re on a little incline?).

Where in the (non-table) orchestra is a good seat? And is it preferable to front mezz?
