About Us

Valentina started as a modest Italian delicatessen in East Sheen in 1991.With a vision to create a one stop shop that caters to the true Italian and the Italians at heart, the Zoccola family expanded their delicatessen offerings and added a restaurant.

Staying true to three generations of culinary tradition they focused on using the finest ingredients in their kitchens and what they put on their shelves. This family value of“only the best”is now the company’s core mission statement. Today, Valentina has grown to a thriving family business branches in East Sheen and Weybridge, Surrey.

The home made prepared food counter is adorned with traditional antipasti, Italian favourites such as Lasagna, Cannelloni, Parmigiana, Arancini, Polpette, Caponata etc.. cooked daily from the finest ingredients in our kitchens.
