The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings[5]

The album received a three-star rating on AllMusic.[3]

The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings suggested that Schneiderman "prefers the kind of knowing, grooving accompaniment that's second nature to Reid and Higgins," and called the album "a blithe mix of standards and new tunes."[5]

The editors of MusicHound Jazz described the album as a "thoroughly enjoyable date," and stated: "Smooth Sailing... features the kind of trio a leader would kill for, players who listen closely and contribute constantly to shape the flow of the music."[4]
