VA wins on amenity kit. Food is, IMO, a wash. VA seemed to have decent wine when I took them, but I suspect that can vary. FAs are good on both.
Personally, I think the bar is pretty much a non-factor. It is really a glorified galley and not a place I'm eager to spend much time.
They are both pretty good J products, but I would tend toward DL on the whole.
You can select row 5 online - just setup an expert flyer alert for when the seats are released (72-24 hours before flight).
