Mosaic has received critical acclaim from critics and fans alike upon release, with praise being directed towards a perceived return to peak musical, creative, and conceptual form. In a positive review from AllMusic, author Neil Z. Yeung notes that "it's a triumphant declaration from these vets, a rousing promise that the party has yet to end," giving the album four stars.[4]

In another review from Lisa Whealy of CrypticRock.com, Whealy states that the album is "an artistic reflection of their appreciation to fans that go to show after show, supporting the band through their creative ride," also saying that it is "an album that stands tall next to prior 311 efforts, Mosaic is certainly the musical definition of the word."[6]
