The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek said the album "comes off as too relaxed, too low-key, and basically uninspiring".[2] In JazzTimes, Thomas Conrad stated "The Golden Striker is chamber jazz of a high order. ... The musicianship in this trio is so refined and the sharing of ideas so selfless that the transitions from the predetermined to the collectively discovered to the individual statement are seamless".[4] On Jazz Review, Don Williamson wrote "The Golden Striker is yet another of Ron Carter's recordings of musical gems that glow, rather than glitter, as he develops memorable tunes, nonetheless deceptively difficult to achieve in the hands of less accomplished musicians, that listeners would want to hear repeatedly because of their beauty and accessibility".[5]
