That's the case in Chicago, for the most part. Except for downtown, much of the valet parking for restaurants consists of the Valet taking your car and cruising the neighborhood to park the vehicles on the street, as land is too valuable, and restaurant's profits too low, to have a dedicated parking lot/area. A not uncommon complaint is the owner getting a "you didn't pay your parking ticket" letter in the mail from Chicago when the valet parks the vehicle illegally, and throws the ticket away when he retrieves it.

Chicago, of course, doesn't care who parked it, the owner has to pay. And typically an inflated amount, since it wasn't paid on-time. Getting reimbursed by the restaurant/valet service usually can be done, but only after lots of time, effort, many phone calls, and sometimes a complaint to the local newspaper "Consumer Help" column.

Nope, I don't use valet parking.
