The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek states "All Our Reasons is wonderfully executed, and full of excellent tunes, nice improvisational turns, numerous surprises (many of them subtle), and a warm, lively sense of engagement throughout".[3] The Guardian's John Fordham noted "It's an A-list lineup, but focused on making unique music rather than parading technicalities".[4] Michael J. West wrote in JazzTimes that "nine sublime, ruminative tracks that are as stark and atmospheric as the cover photograph... All Our Reasons is a splendid recording".[5]
