Alternative Press 4/5

In a 3.5-star review for AllMusic, Greg Prato stated, "Waterdown's All Riot seems custom-made for those who like their emo with a bit of muscle (or vice versa – metal with melody)." [1]

Rating the album five, David of Metal.de noted the album as "plunging" "into mediocrity, although solid but certainly not up to the mark." [2]

Kevin Stewart-Panko of Alternative Press remarked, "On All Riot, they've raised things even higher, dressing up their muscular screamo with hummable rock choruses, some electronic flourishes," giving it a rating of four. [3]
