"Jemput Makan" - basically an inviation for someone else to eat as well
"Silakan Makan" - "Please allow me to eat" or "please let me eat" :\
In a more comedical tone...
"Yok makan yoook~" xD - ("yok" is a beckoning term)
other than that, I usually say "Bismillah" (In the name of god) and sometimes followed by the short prayer.

Yeah, the closest thing we got to "itadakimasu" is "afiyet olsun". It literally translates to something along the lines of "I hope it becomes health".
Though where I come from, we usually say this after the meal, and it's usually the person serving the meal uttering it to the people they fed (after previously being thanked).
This is Turkish by the way.

In holland we say: eet smakelijk.
Meaning: eat deliciously. (literal translation) so it just means 'have a good meal' =)
Who says nothing is impossible? I've been doing nothing for years.
