Christopher Loudon of JazzTimes wrote, "Never before, though, have her vocals or her playing evoked such profound contentment and easy self-assurance. Nor has any previous Krall standards set displayed such tremendous stylistic breadth."[8] John Fordham of The Guardian stated that "From This Moment On is full of classy execution, but it's familiar territory for Krall and her fans.[4]

David Was of NPR commented that "Diana Krall is the undisputed superstar of jazz-inflected singers in the last decade or so, and her new album on Verve, From This Moment On—mostly standards done with big-band arrangements—is a return to her usual form".[9] Jane Cornwell of Jazzwise added, "Krall's skills as a pianist have never been in doubt but here her voice seems richer, her phrasing more natural, her timing very often inspired – particularly on an unhurried, soon-come version of Irving Berlin's 'Isn't It A Lovely Day'. It's the ensemble playing, though, which really marks this out as a good 'un – the thoughtful guitar of Anthony Wilson on 'Exactly Like You'; Terrell Stafford's trumpet solo on 'Isn't This...', the musical empathy throughout. Sure, it would be nice to have more Krall originals. But for the time being, here's the gal at her best".[10]
