Reception
Allmusic gave the album a score of four and a half out of five star score. Allmusic praised the album, claiming it be "a subdued, quiet album that used the Latin rhythms as a foundation, not as a focal point. Supported by a relaxed, sympathetic arrangement of muted brass, simmering percussion, soft strings, and Jobim's lilting guitar, Sinatra turns in an especially noteworthy performance; he has never sounded so subtle, underplaying every line he delivers and showcasing vocal techniques that he never had displayed before."

Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim peaked at #19 on the Billboard 200 charts as well as peaked at #4 on the Jazz Album charts of 1967.
