It could be a number of things, upper control arm bushes, antiroll bar bushes to name 2.

Only way to tell is either a pry bar exploration or get it on some shaker plates.

I have a similar sounding issue, most noticeable when turning the steering to almost full lock. As Johntechx said, I think it is a worn top mount bearing. It is possible to have them replaced rather than replacing the whole strut. Lexus rather unhelpfully do not sell the bearings as a separate part however.
