Frequently asked questions

What people ask us

  • When is the $1 pupusa special?

    Two days a week: every Tuesday in July 2026 — July 7, 14, 21 & 28 — the Pupusa Revuelta drops from $1.75 to $1 (back to $1.75 on August 3), and every Thursday the Bean & Cheese Pupusa is $1 through August 27, 2026. Special hours: 11am–8pm through July 16 · then 3–8pm. No limit, no coupon, no app.

  • What is the eastern-style pupusa revuelta?

    In eastern El Salvador, pupusa revuelta is chicharrón and cheese — no beans. At Variedades La Oriental we make it that way out of respect for the recipe. It runs $1.75 on Monday & Wednesday, 11am–8pm through July 16 · then 3–8pm.

  • Why are the hours different this summer?

    For a limited time this summer, the pupusa specials start earlier: 11am–8pm instead of 3–8pm, through Thursday, July 16, 2026. From Monday, July 20, the window returns to 3–8pm.
