Critical reception
Mother Jones wrote that the album "spotlights Maceo’s understated vocals and intricate saxophone licks ... Dial Maceo has the feel of a party." The Guardian wrote: "The modern special guest album is an even more sinister update of the old-fashioned supergroup ... Dial: M.A.C.E.O is by no means the worst of its kind, but it's proof that even the most free-spirited are no longer safe." The Globe and Mail thought that "Parker's sax is candy-floss sweet, and as stylish as a good suit, but it needs more structural support than it gets from his writing."
