While it's not quite the same as the Kubernetes dashboard, Istio does come bundled with Grafana, which provides a UI for visualizing Istio metrics (via Prometheus).

See Istio's documentation for how to access: https://istio.io/docs/tasks/telemetry/using-istio-dashboard/

TL;DR, run this command: kubectl -n istio-system port-forward $(kubectl -n istio-system get pod -l app=grafana -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') 3000:3000

then navigate here for the dashboard: http://localhost:3000/dashboard/db/istio-mesh-dashboard

A relatively new project called Kiali aims to provide a UI to observe Istio service mesh.
