AllMusic rated the album 4 stars with its review by Brandon Burke stating, "On this, the last of his leader dates, Shorter's compositions employ relatively vague stutter-step heads and then quickly dive right into free improvisation without looking back".[2]

Writing for JazzTimes, Peter Margasak called the recording "a scalding album" featuring "fire-breathing saxophone work" by Gary Windo.[4]

Clifford Allen of Paris Transatlantic described Tes Esat as "a sketchier and more mysterious follow-up" to Shorter's debut album, and commented: "It's difficult to say whether Shorter's music is 'likeable', as it's so difficult to make sense of. Is this sloppy and poorly intoned, also-ran improvising and unimaginative composition or the perfect springboard based on what would otherwise be shortcomings? I still haven't decided, but Shorter is definitely one of the most unique figures of his generation."[5]
