AllMusic[3]

Alex Henderson of AllMusic gave the album a 3 out of 5 star rating. Henderson exclaimed "For George Howard, Midnight Mood is business as usual, and not in a good sense...From the vacuous, knee-jerk elevator music of "Still in Love" and "Within Your Eyes" to a robotic cover of D'Angelo's R&B hit "Smooth," Howard sees to it that every note is in place and is careful to avoid any type of spontaneity. "[3]
