BOSTON — Mayor Michelle Wu’s South End “drug zone” spiraled again Tuesday night — this time inside one of the city’s most celebrated restaurants. Diners at Myers + Chang were left stunned when a man stripped down to his underwear in the middle of dinner service, forcing police to intervene.

The bizarre spectacle is just the latest chapter in the neighborhood’s decline, where open-air drug use, violence, and disorder have become part of daily life. What was once a dining destination is now plagued by chaos — a place where even a posh eatery isn’t safe from the spiral.

Witnesses described the nearly naked man as “happy” and “unbothered,” turning the trendy restaurant into an impromptu circus. “We came for cocktails and small plates, but got dinner theater instead,” one diner quipped.

Police eventually broke up the scene, but residents say it’s yet another sign that Wu’s hands-off approach to the South End has failed. “This isn’t just Mass and Cass anymore — the whole neighborhood is out of control,” one local fumed.

For many, the underwear stunt at Myers + Chang is less a one-off incident and more proof that Boston’s South End has become ground zero for drugs, dysfunction, and chaos under Wu’s watch.
