On my first visit, I enjoyed the menu and ordered from the Elevated Brunch menu, along with a delicious beet juice, and received excellent service. However, my second visit was a bit disappointing. The Southwest salad I ordered was soggy and unremarkable, and the waitress recommended a celery juice that was terrible. The service was also lacking in attentiveness. I may give the restaurant a third try, but my enthusiasm has definitely decreased after the second visit.
My friend and I came here for happy hour and we will definitely be back. Parking was a breeze, the patio was huge, food was tasty, and loved the ambiance. Highly recommend!

First of all, the place is crystal clean. That’s a more expensive restaurant cleanness. I was really happy that I finally went to a really clean restaurant that is not high end. Moreover, the natural light was very good too. So mornings there would be awesome, but they need to add omelets to their breakfast menu (just an opinion). The idea of paying while ordering is cool as I was able to leave as soon as I wanted to. I ordered a salad, there was nothing special about it, but it was exactly as described and as expected, which is actually cool as I am now sure when I go there I will not be disappointed. The waiter was nice, she didn’t look tired or bored of the job. This was a happy restaurant experience.
This is a delightful little restaurant with a healthy aim. It is order at the counter service, it seems. Still, the staff there are quite kind and responsive. They have a variety of fresh cocktails, both alcoholic and 'healthy ' which is non-alcoholic. I tried the 'beet ' which is pictured, also. Prices are somewhat high for the food, but it 's good quality. This is owned by the same folks that own Kerbey Lane, with a fresh take on a healthier locale. Parking is included in a deck right beside the joint, free parking, so don 't worry about that. Menu is attached in a photo, hope it 's readable after upload.
We checked out High Note for brunch on a Sunday. They have a free private parking garage, so this is definitely a plus for Austin. High Note is dog-friendly, and we were able to get a reservation on their outdoor patio. The restaurant wasn't fully busy, and there were plenty of seats available (may not need to get reservations here after all). We ordered: -Butter Coffee (MCT oil ghee) for $5.50 -Blistered Shishito Peppers with cashew aioli for $9 -High Note Combo (soft scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, choice of waffles or French toast) for $13 I never tried butter coffee before, and I don't think I would ever order it again. It tastes like what it's supposed to be... butter and coffee, but I don't like the combination at all. It's not terrible, but it's not that good either (2/5). The waiter said it's more filling and heartier for people rather than just a morning coffee. The blistered shishito peppers with the cashew aioli was delicious (5/5). I would recommend getting this for sure. The High Note Combo was okay (3/5). I ordered the French toast with it, and it tasted kind of dry even while dipping it in syrup. The bacon tasted kind of weird, the sausage was meh, and I wish I had more of a choice of how I could get my eggs prepared (not just scrambled). I wouldn't order this breakfast plate again. Overall, I did like High Note. The service was great, the outdoor patio was beautiful, and they are dog-friendly. Although I loved the blistered shishito peppers, their breakfast plate was not that great. If I came back, I would order other items on their menu instead.
Lovely place to enjoy some awesome food, vegan and gluten free options, boozy healthy drinks, and beautiful atmosphere. Great place for brunch! LOTS OF FREE PARKING in attached garage on Toomey St.
Healthy Clean Eats brought to you by the team behind Kerbey Lane. This South Lamar spot has a diverse menu with something for everyone, as long as you are into healthy fare. All of the food is beautiful and colorful and you leave feeling satiated and light. Parking lot in the building is a plus, and there is also paid street meter parking in the area. Order at the counter and your food is brought to your table. Waitstaff is very helpful and available should you need anything. Indoor seating area is beautiful and bright. There is also a pretty great large patio with tons of shade if you want to enjoy dining al fresco. Do try the dip trio with the vegan cashew QUESO. It’s really something else. Loved the salmon poke rolls and the broccolini sandwich. They also have a menu of juice drinks, that you can enjoy “healthy” or “boozy” which is a fun take on juice. Pretty much everything on this menu is Instagrammable ; I have been twice and am definitely going to return.

When I first came, I loved the menu and ordered from the raised brunch menu and a fabulous beet juice and had great service. for the second time I got a southwest salate that was a bit soggy and inconspicuous. I also took the waitress on a celery juice that was terrible and the waitress was not very attentive. there can be a third attempt, but I am less excited after my second visit.
Great first time experience! My friends and I got different plates and all of the food was delicious. Highly recommend the High Note Combo w/ waffles. Service was great. Love the aesthetic of inside and patio. Will definitely come back!
We love this restaurant so much. The service and the food are always excellent! We return as often as we can.
