Can anybody tell me which is the better of the T3 clubs? I chose the South, and it is fine, other than no self-serve booze and no showers like in T2

Currently in Sky Club lounge Terminal 2 awaiting Aer Lingus flight back to Dublin, pleasantly surprised, very quiet for the most part, food selection not too bad, could do with some more snacks, but for $29 as an Delta Amex Plat. card a lot more pleasant the being in the main terminal building, added bonus departing Gate 23 so not much of a walk.

Yeah the South T3 is the current Delta modern decor, it's small, limited options but decent.
The "original" T3 club I've always liked the decor and served bar (I don't think it's got premium selections for $$) but all the clubs have more top shelf booze options.
T2 is clearly the best, with more space and options. They even have bottled beer (Mission Heffeweisen) and beer on tap (all self-serve). Usually you can ask for coffee cups to go for all of them BTW.

So I had the opportunity to check out T2 and original T3 clubs today. I’m headed back to DCA via CVG tonight after arriving this afternoon on KL (BKK-AMS-LAX). Started out at T3 since it is the closest walk from TBIT and is checkin for CVG. Lots of people, but not uncomfortably crowded, but seating is close. Good views. Friendly staff.
Headed over to T2 for a shower and stayed for a few hours, quieter and less crowded feel.
Food offerings seemed to be identical.
Back at T3 now waiting for boarding.

Recent recommendation of SkyClub in LAX
I'm flying LAX-PVG in D1. Which SkyClub, T2 or T3, is better?
I know the flight (DL89) is flying out of TBIT, but last year I was able to enter the TSA in T3 and took a bus to TBIT. I suppose I can also do it this time. However, I am not quite sure if I can utilize the D1 checkin at T2.
Personally, I have only been to the Skyclub in T3.

T2 is better. It's not amazing, but it's pretty good.

Flying to Seattle today, know flight can depart from either Terminal 2 or Terminal 3, currently showing Terminal 3, which I think is where we flew into and it appeared to be an absolute dump, Shake Shack and Starbucks, is it worth paying into the lounge? We will be there around 16:00, five of us, have the Delta Co Branded cards. Thanks
