Stephen Thomas Erlewine writing for Allmusic.com gave the album a lukewarm review, describing it as a 'professional and stylish album' but saying that it 'only yields a handful of true gems'. Erlewine found neither Sinatra or Riddle at fault, but said that the record plays as 'a series of individual moments, not as a cohesive collection'. Erlewine praises "The Way You Look Tonight" as one of Sinatra's 'classic performances', and rates "Three Coins in the Fountain" and "All the Way" highly.[1]
