The AllMusic review stated, "The trio format forces the enterprising saxophonist to create all the harmonic and melodic tension by himself. And with his tart throaty tone, cutting attack, bluesy contours and harmonic fluidity, Garrett is more than able to sustain interest."[3] Steve Wyzard of Jazz Music Archives was positive of the album: "Triology does without the melodic 'oomph' of keyboards, guitar, or another horn. ... There are no weak links and no showing off, nor is there any hint of 'hushed reverence'. Triology is the work of a true virtuoso who knows who he is, and where he wants to go."[2]
