At the age of 14, Berasategui began to work in his parents' restaurant, Bodegón Alejandro.[2] When Berasategui began his culinary career, there were no Michelin star restaurants in the Basque Country.[1] He was sent to France to train as a pastry chef when he was 17.[2] At the age of 20 he took over his parents' restaurant, and earned his first Michelin star there by the age of 25.[2]

Berasategui opened his eponymous restaurant in Lasarte-Oria (outside San Sebastián) in 1993. It was awarded a third Michelin star in the 2001 Michelin Guide. The restaurant was voted 29th-best restaurant in the world by Restaurant in both 2008 and 2011, the highest the restaurant has appeared on the list.[3][4]

In addition to his three at Restaurante Martín Berasategui, he holds three at Restaraunte Lasarte in Barcelona and another two at M.B. in Tenerife (the largest of the Canary Islands).[5][1] His restaurant M.B. in the Ritz Carlton Abama resort in Tenerife gained its first Michelin star in the 2010 guide.[2] In addition to his three Michelin-starred restaurants, he owns a further six around the world including two in the Dominican Republic and one in Mexico, and is opening a further restaurant in Costa Rica in 2014.[needs update][1]
