First Hill’s Gyro Saj is expanding to Broadway.

A person with knowledge of the plans tells CHS the 2022-born Madison shawarma and falafel joint is readying the space formerly home to Ian’s Pizza on the Hill.

The Wisconsin-born chain exited Broadway to begin 2025 as its 10-year lease came up.

The new Gyro Saj will join a mix of restaurants neighboring Blick Art Materials in the Hunters Capital owned and managed Broadway Building at Broadway and Pine. That group includes FOB Poke Bar and its new sibling Old Street Malatang.

While northern Broadway has grown lately with some elevated approaches including the opening soon Nomadic Wine Dispensary in the former Rapport space, and the new chef-driven Saucery in the Corvus and Co. kitchen, Broadway’s food and drink options have trended toward the fast-er food end of the spectrum on its southern end near Pike/Pine including recent additions like a Broadway Wingstop.

Fans of more affordable food on the move will also appreciate the coming soon Burritos California which is taking shape — and readying the drive-thru — at the old Rancho Bravo on E Pine across from Cal Anderson Park.

Gyro Saj will open soon at 1620 Broadway. Learn more at gyrosaj.com.
