I've been tasked/talked into make a beef appetizer for an up coming party.
I was thinking of smoking some filets to Med rare and thin slicing them (lox). I'll flower them (twist) on round crackers. Dollop of horseradish & sour cream sauce and top with caviar. Garnish will be fresh dill?

IMO the caviar taste will not go well with the beef. Otherwise it sounds terrific.
I also agree that caviar wouldn't taste right on beef. What about caramelized onions instead of caviar? For a garnish, tarragon would also be nice ....

That sounds good to me, but some people are turned off by the slightest hint of red in meat. Fortunately, those people tend to be in the minority.

Don't like the fish and beef combination;
Cut the beef (fillet) into large cubes. Season with Cajun spices Blacken quickly on a very hot dry cast iron pan. (all 6 sides of each cube) Allow to rest and cool. Slice into and serve on a toast triangle cutting each slice in half to match the triangle. Serve with a dollop of wasabi and mayonnaise mixture and shreds of daikon.

Is this an invitation 😉 Sounds good to me. I'm not so sure about the dill though.

Rather than caviar and dill, I'd use a tiny amount of duxelles (finely chopped sauteed mushrooms) on top.
I also agree that caviar wouldn't taste right on beef. What about caramelized onions instead of caviar? For a garnish, tarragon would also be nice ....

What does "lox" have to do with beef... that's a pretty disgusting combination, even in the same sentence, even figuratively.

I think I would slice the tenderloin very thin, as you suggested. Then I would schmear horseradish sauce down the center and add a sauteed asparagus tip. Roll and serve warm or cold. This way you aren't alienating low carb people by serving it on bread. :-)
