Far from Over was generally well-regarded by professional music critics on release. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 88, based on five reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[2]

In his review for AllMusic, Matt Collar wrote, "What's particularly engaging about Far from Over is Iyer and his band's sense of danger and risk-taking. Ultimately, it's that balance of harmonically adventurous exploration and no-holds-barred blowing that make Far from Over nothing short of thrilling."[3]
