In Spanish (or, to be precise, in some Spanish-speaking countries) it means "tile", as in "floor tile". Not bad, but not impressive either.

Zócalo means socket, socle, or baseboard, depending on the context.

Socket is assumed if no context.

I have never heard of it used as 'tile'. A tile is 'baldoza'.
