Lindeville was well received by critics. Reviewing for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine called it a "delight ... filled with deftly rendered vignettes and sly jokes, all delivered with heart by McBryde and frequent foil Raitiere, whose colorful drawl ensures the punch lines slide by easily". Veteran critic Robert Christgau ranked it as the sixth best album of 2023, having hailed it as a "concept album with its pants down ... simultaneously hilarious and sad as shit".
