Default Shoulder-to-Shoulder or Face-to-Face

I notice in restaurants, when a couple is sitting alone together, some sit side by side and some site across from each other. Which couple are you; Shoulder-to-Shoulder or Face-to-Face?

I prefer to face the person I'm talking to

Face to face and getting a spot where one of us is always facing the door(s).

Corner to corner that way can share and not have to reach across the table, still have a conversation without infringement on other tables

If we are in a place that is at all noisy, I like to sit next to my wife so I can hear her better.

Depends on where we are and what kind of tables/chairs we have.

Agree if it is just the two of us. Otherwise, side by side.

Side by side. It's too hard to reach the Wendy's window if we are facing each other.
We miss In-N-Out Burger out west, but I digress.

Side by side but we are drunks so we are sitting at the bar. The bartender gets mad when we go face to face. (even though I usually know how to make cocktails better).

But really, at a table it's always face to face if just us. Sitting beside eachother alone at a table for 4 is awkward.
