Valentino's is an outstanding bodega that has been an essential part of our neighborhood for over 30 yrs, and the owner, Elie, is a true gem. Elie goes above and beyond to take care of the neighborhood, whether that means delivering goods to senior citizens or helping pregnant women carry their bags.This spot has everything you need to satisfy your daily needs, from household necessities for cooking and baking to an impressive candy selection. What sets Valentino's apart is its vast selection of alcoholic beverages, which includes a diverse range of beers, wines, and spirits. The wine selection, in particular, is outstanding, featuring wines from various regions worldwide. Whether you're looking to unwind with a glass of wine or stock up on party essentials, Valentino's has you covered.In addition to his exceptional customer service, Elie has created a welcoming environment at Valentino's that encourages locals to gather and socialize. There's a cozy bench outside the store where neighbors can catch up, enjoy the sunshine, and reset.We love Valentino's and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch bodega in the area!

Owner was aggressive and rude. Not missing much, no selection, and messy. Worst bodega I’ve been to in SF.

If I could give 0 stars I would. When I shopped here I checked out with the owner Eli who, from what I experienced, was a rude and exceptionally disrespectful person. As a customer he treated me as though I should be grateful to him to be buying his insanely overpriced items. He sneered and was almost off putting with how unfriendly he was the 2 times I shopped at his store. The second time I shopped there I also experienced him leave his shop to chase customers/people down the sidewalk yelling at them for no apparent reason. I watched him litterally follow these people to their car and yell at them through their passenger side window. It was completely unprofessional and something that was insane to experience after seeing all of the other good reviews on yelp. I've never seen anything like it and although I'd love to shop at a local market I can't in good conscience support someone like him.

Elie is a true gem - he is always willing to help and his passion for running this market makes it stand out amongst the rest. He's a key part of the neighborhood! His items are reasonably priced and he has almost everything you could possibly need! Valentino's is not your average corner store!!!

Love this place. The owner is so kind and helpful. Great little wine room in the back. He knows his merchandise! Bench out front is a nice place to meet the neighbors. He even has dog leash hooks to leash- up your dog.
