Allmusic editor Liana Jonas found that on "At Last marks a refreshing return by Gladys Knight, who doesn't miss a beat," calling it "a much-welcomed return by the gifted vocalist who easily adapts to contemporary music without compromising her signature sweet tones. The 13 tracks featured on At Last are a blend of mid-tempo R&B fare and ballads. Because Knight seamlessly incorporates a 2001 music sensibility to this recording, At Last can comfortably sit alongside works by Destiny's Child, Toni Braxton, Faith Evans, and other younger musical counterparts [...] Being out of the studio for six years has had no effect on Knight, as she is in top form. Her voice is rich, soulful, and silk."[1]
