Officers were called to the street following reports of gunshots on Wednesday evening. Police said the shooting was an "isolated and targeted attack" involving two groups of people.
A South Yorkshire Police spokesman said: "A number of cordons are in place around Brunswick Street and police ask public to co-operate with officers at the location." Ch Supt Paul Broadbent, who is leading the investigation, told a news conference he believed the shooting to be gang-related.
A press conference is expected to be held by South Yorkshire Police later. Mr Broadbent said Sheffield did not have a higher rate of gang-related crimes than other cities.
He said people had come forward with information about the incident but he was still appealing for witnesses to contact police.
One of the injured men is said to be in a serious but stable condition.
The other two suffered less severe injuries and were taken to the minor injuries unit at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital.
The unit was closed on Thursday morning while police carried out investigations there but it has reopened.
