While meat is in freezer, make sauce by combining lemon juice, wine, shallots, capers, mustard, and parsley. Gradually whisk in olive oil by pouring in as a small stream. Add salt and mushrooms and toss. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. Remove meat from freezer and with a very sharp thin knife slice on a diagonal into paper thin slices.
Place beef slices on platter or individual plates. Top with sauce with additional sauce served on the side. Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the filet slices.
