The episode received mixed reviews. Kevin McFarland from The A.V. Club gave the episode a C, saying "The only parts of this episode that didn't feel cobbled together from previous episodes and other shows (the mountain climbing plot, the cannibalism sequence, the family dinner gone awry) were the cutaways, which is pretty typical of Family Guy at this point. It's anticlimactic, like when you realize there's about 11 minutes of action in a three-hour football game."[4]
Carter Doston from TV Fanatic gave the episode three and a half stars out of five, saying "There were a lot of funny little lines, some cutaways that largely fell flat, It wasn't great, but I've sure seen worse from this series."[5]
