The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow noted "Since this was not one of Pepper's strongest groups, the LP is not essential, but fans of the unique altoist will want to pick up these interesting performances".{{Allmusic|first=Scott |last=Yanow |class=album |id= mw0000678614 |title=A Night in Tunisia – Review |accessdate=October 31, 2016}}
