An overview of rhythm and blues Christmas albums for Billboard by J. R. Reynolds recommends this release and calls it a "festive delight".[2] A similar rundown in Ebony from 1997 also includes Christmas Here with You among recommended releases.[3] Editors of AllMusic Guide gave this album three out of five stars, with critic Gina Boldman calling it a "predictable but festive holiday release".[1]
It was the last studio album to feature the classic lineup of the group.
