"Western Pacific, a pizza-focused restaurant in Berkeley, was opened by Charlie Hallowell and Donna Insalaco in October 2018. Despite its initial popularity, the restaurant faced significant business decline after Solei Ho, a restaurant critic, publicly refused to review or recommend it due to Hallowell's past allegations of sexual harassment. The restaurant's business reportedly dropped by 50%, and it was eventually sold in 2019." - Eve Batey
