The most common phrases I hear waiters/waitresses use are "what can I get you" and "what will you have"
"May I help you" and "what do you want to eat" also make sense and would work fine :)
EDIT: I also totally agree with Rosco, "Are you ready to order?" is also super common - often the conversation will go something like:
waiter/waitress: "Are you ready to order?"
me: (looking around to table to make sure noone disagrees) "I think so, yeah"
waiter/waitress: "great, what will you have?"
If I'm by myself, I'd probably respond with:
"I think so, yeah - I'll have..."

What do you want to eat. Or: What would you like to have. :)

I always hear "Are you ready to order" " Maybe "what can I get you or what are you going to have"? Never
may I help you ? what you want to eat? "
