The editors of AllMusic awarded the album three stars, and writer Richie Unterberger stated: "Shangri-La doesn't particularly stand out from other, similar albums he made at the time with organ, but it's a respectable set with both uptempo swingers and ballads."[2]

A reviewer for Billboard noted that Patterson and James provide "first-rate support" to Stitt, and commented: "The tempos run the gamut from soulful to vibrant. It's all great jazz."[4]

A writer for Negro Digest remarked: "Stitt has remained one of the most baffling... figures on the jazz scene. Nowhere is this more apparent than in... Shangri-La... The spark is still there, but the flame is missing. Where excitement is called for, there is often tedium."[5]
