Upon its release, Electric Café received mixed reviews from critics, many of whom praised the band for their vocal performances but found the material too generic and uneven. In the United States, the album debuted at number 14 on Billboard's Independent Albums and reached the Top Album Sales chart. Elsewhere, it entered the UK Independent Albums chart. Electric Café was preceded by the single "Deja Vu", followed by "I'm Good" and "Have a Seat" as well as lead single "Rocket", the latter of which became their first top 10 hit on Billboard's Adult R&B Songs chart in over 20 years. In support of the album, En Vogue embarked on the two European concert tours, including the For the Love of Music Tour (2017) and the 2018 European Tour.
