Writing for Common Sense Media, reviewer Melissa Camacho said, "While the overall series will remind you of unscripted shows like Vanderpump Rules, Southern Hospitality remains true to its roots by attempting to contextualize all of this within Southern culture and community, a few of which border on stereotypes about women, clothes, and attitudes. Folks who aren't drawn to this type of entertainment won't find much here. Meanwhile, if you're a fan of the franchise, you'll find the series to be a bit of a departure from its predecessors."
