In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow states "Pianist Mike LeDonne, whose main influence is McCoy Tyner, mostly sounds pretty original throughout this swinging trio set ... Mike LeDonne is the main star throughout and is heard in prime form. Recommended". In JazzTimes, Thomas Conrad wrote "LeDonne is a deeply middle-of-the-road mainstream-modern pianist who lacks any signature stylistic manifestations that would give his work a clearly identifiable personality. But he is highly proficient and swings at all tempos. He also has taste. Night Song is a quality project throughout"
