AllMusic gave the album a rating of three stars.[2]
In his book Tropics of Desire, Jose Quiroga wrote that, in Two Sides of La Lupe, the "dialectical modes are more fully fleshed out." Referring to the cover art, Quiroga posits that the photograph on the left depicts the impish boogaloo singer, while the photograph on the right is her "bolero pose" in which she uses the chair "as a shield for the sexy vulnerability of sadness."[3]
