I just enjoyed an Imo's pizza for the first time since September, 2011. I'm not saying Imo's makes the best pizza in the world, but if there's anything better, I haven't tried it.
if we didn't have kids and someone to cook, we'd do kitchen more often

They might be in small towns (Luling, for Heaven's Sake!) or only do up small batches, or operate out of a trailer that's smaller than the smoking pit, - or all of the above (Franklin's I'm looking at you). They all run out early on Saturday, and once they're out, you have to wait for next week.
Now, they might indeed be superior, but it's not off the table that they're making these outlandish judgments because they know their usual reader will never be in a position to directly compare the reviewers' assertions. For instance, If I want brisket from Smitty's I have to leave the house at about 4 a.m. and then bring lots of coffee because I'll be in line for hours. And, of course, once you've invested that kind of time, you're not going to dislike it and therefore admit to having undertaken a fool's errand. Such as it is with beers and the like.
I was similarly tempted to get that belgian monk beer that they're releasing this one time ($84 for a six-pack, plus glasses) but just can't bring myself to do it, precisely for this reason.
so where you taking me when I'm in town?

If you've already gone through Dance, Dance, Dance, A Wild Sheep Chase, his three short story collections, Norwegian Wood, Wind Up Bird Chronicle, and Kafka on the Shore, then yes, purchase it. It's middling Murakami, which means it's still going to be an interesting, well wriiten read.
