AllMusic editor MacKenzie Wilson called Dance with Me "a fresh, quick-stepping dance-oriented album [with] a simple urban spin on R&B grooves and sultry hip-hop beats [...] A definitive musical maturation is pretty obvious from her previous material, and Morgan stays sassy with upbeat songs about adoration and the lovelorn [...] Dance with Me is sheer, decent, and carefree in the sense that Debelah Morgan made a solid record with the idea of doing it only for herself."
