Rocket to Venus is co-owned by the owner of Holy Frijoles, which contributes some Hampden cred to this retro sci-fi restaurant and bar. The menu focuses on pub food (as in four 2-ounce burgers served with fried onions), but includes several entrées as well (including pan-seared salmon). We usually get the beet salad, brussels sprouts or a plate of sliders.
