I thought filet mignons are round and small but these shapes in the picture look like tenderloin. They had ones that are smaller and round; did I grab wrong steaks? Thanks!

They are. Tenderloin aka filet mignon is not an even cylinder so when they cut it from the butt end ( fatter rounded end) to the tail ( where the meat becomes small and tapers down from the roundest part -the center)
The cuts won’t all look the same. The most uniform pieces are in the center but it doesn’t mean better just more cylinder and closest to being even.

This for sure. At one of my jobs we used to only get packs of butt-ends to cut. Its not as easy to make them look good in a pack compared to the full tenderloin.

Looks like round steaks (literally ass steaks)

Those are tenderloins or future Filet Mignons. Filet mignon is a tenderloin steak wrapped in bacon.

Tenderloin “butt” filet mignon is right after if I’m not mistaken I had to google it awhile back when I first started cutting meat just to figure it out
