On AllMusic Thom Jurek said, "Let's Get Together is a good-time, swinging, blues and New Orleans R&B-drenched romp through the roots of American music.... Betts is too much of a musician to have to show off, and he has nothing whatsoever to prove – though it's true no one could have guessed he was such a fine arranger.... Though he hasn't done any solo records in a while, this cannot be considered Dickey Betts' comeback; he's simply stepped out on his own again..."
In Entertainment Weekly Tom Sinclair wrote, "Give it up for Betts. Ousted from the Allman Brothers Band after three decades, the virtuoso axman turns around and delivers a stomping-good Saturday night album.... a solid and cohesive disc – a joyful jambalaya of jazz, blues, country, and Latin rock tunes – graced by Betts' distinctively fluid playing."
Billboard said, "After his unceremonious 2000 ousting from the band he helped propel to stardom, celebrated Allman Brothers Band guitarist Dickey Betts put his own group together, and the result is a fine collection of jam-heavy blues rock songs.... Production-wise, the mix is strangely muffled in places, sometimes muting the obvious exuberance of Betts and his band, but it's still a fine ride and quite a statement regarding Betts and his still-potent skills."
In The Music Box John Metzger wrote, "... Betts has returned – albeit it with a new band in tow – and his latest release Let's Get Together is a solid, if not magnificent, effort that salvages what could have been a rather precipitous downfall.... the Dickey Betts Band does do a respectable job in offering plenty for fans to enjoy by turning in a solid effort that occasionally strikes a few impressive chords."
