It is a cut of meat, much like a beef sirloin steak. It comes from above the tenderloin muscle in the alligator's tail.
The tenderloin is a part of the beef's loin, which is located roughly at the lower back of the animal. If you imagine the torso of a cow you will see the following primal cuts from left to right: Upper half: Ribs, Loin, Sirloin (the ribs being the larger part of the upper torso) Lower Half: Brisket, Plate, Flank
Filet mignon and top sirloin are two different cuts of meat but both come from the loins. Filet mingon is a tenderloin cut and top sirloin is cut from the top sirloin.

The only difference is the location on the animal. On a cow for example, the top sirloin is a slightly higher cut on the beast than the bottom sirloin. The generic term "sirloin" is another sirloin cut that is just above the tenderloin. No one sirloin is better than the other, however, the top sirloin is slightly more tender, as it is located in an area where the muscle is not given any exposure and thus the meat is slightly more tender then, say, the shank (legs). Most people think "top" sirloin means its of better quality, but this is a myth. It all depends on how you cook the meat, and how tender you desire the meat to be. For the most tender cut from the sirloin section, choose the top sirloin. For the most tender cut on the whole animal, choose tenderloin (for obvious reasons.)
The sirloin steak is located in the hindquarter of the beef carcass, just behind the tenderloin. It is a continuation of the muscle that makes up the filet mignon, but is located further back towards the rump. The sirloin is known for its flavor and tenderness, making it a popular choice among steak lovers.
Rear quarters tend to be more tender. In beef cattle, brisket comes from the front and sirloin from the back.

Cube steak can be made from the top sirloin, so the only difference then would be that the sirloin is cut as a true steak, but to be "cube steak", the meat has been tenderized by pounding with a meat tenderizing hammer or put through a mechanical meat tenderizer to partially slice the fibers to make the meat more tender. Cube steak is also often made from the top round.
