Question

He performed Havdalah before praying and said 'Ata Chonantanu', can he eat?

Answer

He can eat, and if he starts eating, he needs a guard.

Source

See in Biur Halacha in Siman 299 where they were sitting at a meal and Shabbat ended, that they perform Havdalah and continue the meal, and prayer is not mentioned there, unlike what is implied in Mishnah Berurah there, Se'if Katan 35.
