AllMusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine opined that Electric Honey "finds Luscious Jackson narrowing their focus, concentrating more on groove and texture than full-fledged songs", resulting in an album that is "breezy and enjoyable, to be sure, but nevertheless a little too lightweight to really take hold."
