"[1] Jenna Hally Rubenstein of MTV stated, "'I Like It Like That' would have been a perfect accompaniment to the middle-of-summer heat, but let's just act like fall's not coming and keep this track on repeat anyway.

"[1] Shahryar Rizvi of the Dallas Observer gave a negative review of the song calling it "mediocre."

There is an edited or "clean" version of the song that replaces "damn" with "yeah" or "hey", "make the girls take it all off" with "all the girls singing along", "as the cops roll up" with "as my friends roll up", "bought out the bar" with "valet'd the car", and "drinks on me" with "follow me".
