AllMusic

AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine commended Lynch for utilizing the groove he used on Current Mood to make the record a more breezy and personal affair but noted that his "unrepentant cheerfulness" makes it difficult for listeners to tell what he's singing about, concluding that, "Some could call this tonal consistency, but the adherence to the middle of the road makes Tullahoma not much more than finely crafted background music."

Tullahoma debuted at number four on Billboard's Top Country Albums with 16,000 album-equivalent units units, 7,000 of which are in traditional album sales. As of March 2020, it has sold 13,500 copies in the United States, and 221,000 in consumed units.
