You say go bigger but can you also include how to determine how much space should be between tables and walls/sideboards in order to have walking space when the seats are pulled out? Because if a table is too big it also makes the room insanely uncomfortable.
I have an 83” solid elliptical dining table. It’s heavy wood with 2 modern brass pedestals. I love it so much. I can seat 8 comfortably or 3 on one end for a more intimate interaction. No legs getting in my way. No instability like a single central pedestal. Shape is contemporary but wood top is warm. No cut in the middle, no leaves.
get one that extends and if you can one where the table has a secret compartment that stores the extra tabletop pieces. You can go from a 6 to 10 foot long table in no time.

Love the “go a little bigger than comfortable” advice. it’s always better to be able to fit more friends 🥰
Oval tablecloths are really hard to find.
