The AllMusic review by David R. Adler said "Stardust is another satisfying record from Ron Carter, this one in part a tribute to the late Oscar Pettiford. ... Golson and Hanna are in particularly good form, their richly seasoned sounds meshing well with the élan of the younger Locke".[2] On PopMatters, Maurice Bottomley stated "Stardust is, conceptually, a tribute to the work of Oscar Pettiford. It is also just about the strongest of some very impressive small group releases doing the rounds ... not only the most accomplished but also one of the most instantly likeable of this year's releases. As unpretentious and self-effacing as it is impressive,Stardust is an aptly named delight".[4]
